“As for the iPad, there will be imitators, other people in the market soon, but I believe that is a game-changer altogether,” Mr Murdoch said. ”We will have young people reading newspapers, we’ll have different-looking types of newspapers, we’ve already got new sites from independent people at the moment. It’s a real game-changer in the presentation of news.”
That’s Rupert Murdoch speaking a few days ago speaking about News Corp’s latest results. The iPad is agame changer. Once the current price barrier is reduced it will become more of a game changer – I say that as a regular iPad user. Think back to the early days of the iPod, the price decline and the surge in uptake.
